JavaEmail testing with GreenMail

Below images are representing how application is connecting to mail service and how we can test mailservice with GreenMail? Below I have taken example for development environment.

DEV environment structure for MailService

Java Mail structure


Now will see the structure for Greenmail with JavaMail, How we can test JavaMail with GreenMail:

Java Mail with greenmail structure


Steps:
  • First using test configuration Greenmail server will be started.
  • Using same test configuration, JavaMail needs to be setup.
  • After GreenMail server startup, need to execute JavaMail method
  • After execution result needs to validate using Assert in JUNIT

Sample code to test Email with Greenmail

1. AppConfig.java
This is my actual class which is having connectivity with JavaMail.
package com.village.springEmailTest.config;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Value;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.ImportResource;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.PropertySource;
import org.springframework.mail.javamail.JavaMailSenderImpl;
import java.util.Properties;

@Configuration@ImportResource(value = "classpath:/spring/appXMLContext.xml")
@PropertySource(value = "classpath:/properties/application.properties")
public class AppConfig {
	
	@Beanpublic JavaMailSenderImpl emailSender(@Value("${email.host}") String emailHost,
			@Value("${email.port}") Integer emailPort,
			@Value("${email.username}") String username,
			@Value("${email.pass}") String password){     
		
			JavaMailSenderImpl emailSender = new JavaMailSenderImpl();         
			emailSender.setHost(emailHost);         
			emailSender.setPort(emailPort);         
			emailSender.setUsername(username);         
			emailSender.setPassword(password);         
			//emailSender.setDefaultEncoding("UTF_8");         
			Properties mailProps = new Properties();         
			mailProps.setProperty("mail.transport.protocol","smtp");         
			mailProps.setProperty("mail.smtp.auth","true");         
			mailProps.setProperty("mail.smtp.starttls.enable","true");         
			mailProps.setProperty("mail.debug","false");         
			emailSender.setJavaMailProperties(mailProps);      
			returnemailSender;      
		}
}

Try executing the test class EmailTest, will get to know how this is working.
